    Are we basically a counter attacking side now?

    Damn right Dave. If anybody believes we are gonna keep winning and winning in comfort, than they are plain daft.
    I keep hearing this statement that no real decent team at this level. Possibly so. In that, I would say we are part of that statement.
    We are on a good run but a few so so performances but as you say, we are winning. That's all that matters.

    If we win ugly today, who cares?

    I do hope so. Don't like the way they play.

    Mansfield look good with their pressing but a. Lot less good when we run at them they look to be afraid of a bit of pace we need to exploit that as they go for the equalizer

    I’d say they’ll be hoping for 3. They’ve certainly approached the game in that way.

    How many times have we had loads of possession or loads of chances and gone in nil nil over the last few years?

    Got to take your chances and its nice we've got a couple of strikers who can do that now.

    You're right "poor" is a bit harsh. The longer this run goes on we are going to be more patient at home because sides will come here and play a pressing game and we will probably find we get more room away from home.

    I think T&S having a word we'll see a better Bradford city second half, my worry is young Crankshaw it's O/K him coming back to help out but he's conceded 3 fouls out wide hence his yellow.

    Probably with this formation, not bothered if we keep getting results. Not sure how fans, once back in numbers at VP, would react though, could easily get on the players back if no early breakthrough

    Do we ignore them hitting the post and a debatable offside goal then?
